I don't see why it wouldn't work, of course he would have to provide a good support for it, especially under very windy conditions.
Another good fast growing plant is Carolina Cherry Laurel, Prunus caroliniana, it grows fast it is evergreen and need no support. It is also native to Texas and very easy to grow.

There are other native evergreens but they are not fast growers, I have the cherry laurel as a screen to my compost area and it looks great.
Her is a picture of mine.
